Underwood : Wright's explorations in Cuba 293 



This list of Wright's stations has been submitted to Professor 

 F. S. Earle, Director of the Estacion Central Agronomica at 

 Santiago de las Vegas, Cuba, whose familiarity with the country 

 has enabled him to locate certain places and estates on the map of 

 Cuba that would have been impossible to one less familiar with 

 the geography of the region. In time, it maybe possible to locate 

 with accuracy the remaining stations, which are as yet unknown 

 except from the brief and often unsatisfactory hints in Wright's 

 correspondence. The notes added by Professor Earle to the ac- 

 count are marked with his initial — E.
